Use Case: Enhancing Smart Cities through Precision Data Annotation
Challenge
A large-scale smart city initiative requires the optimization of urban infrastructure across multiple dimensions, including traffic management, energy efficiency, waste management, and air quality monitoring. Additionally, there is a need to analyze citizen feedback and incident reports to improve public services and ensure regulatory compliance.
Solution
id.di provides precision data annotation services to support the development of AI models capable of transforming the city’s infrastructure. The project begins with a comprehensive consultation to define specific needs and objectives. Various types of data are identified for annotation, including traffic camera footage, satellite images, sensor data, and textual data from citizen reports and social media.
Process
Data Collection & Preparation
Raw data, including visual data, sensor readings, and text documents, is collected and prepared for annotation. This involves cleaning, organizing, and structuring the data to ensure it is ready for accurate annotation.
Annotation Process
Visual Data: Annotation experts label vehicles, traffic signals, and road types within thousands of images and video frames, which helps in optimizing traffic management and reducing congestion.Textual Data: The team categorizes and tags themes in citizen feedback, incident reports, and social media posts. This enables the AI models to analyze public sentiment, prioritize responses, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
Quality Control
Rigorous quality control measures are applied, including multiple layers of checks and refinements, ensuring that the annotated data meets the highest standards of accuracy.
Data Delivery & Integration
After passing quality checks, the annotated data is delivered in the required format, ready for integration into AI models. These models are then deployed to optimize various aspects of the city’s infrastructure.
